Perhaps I can say that I have already had a life, so that now I can afford to waste
my time on trivial matters such as this! :-)
I write it off as coincidence. It depends on 10 being the base for the arithmetic.
It also depends on such arbitrary things as the choice of circumference divided by
diameter, rather than circumference divided by radius, to take as the basic constant
for measuring circles. Given that both e and pi are approximately 3, and given that
any Hebrew or Greek sentence of that approximate length will yield a number
approximately 3, there is no coincidence about the first digit for those two
numbers. This fact makes the results less surprising than they might otherwise be.
